Sterling Heights police are looking for a thin man who robbed the Chase Bank on 14 Mile and Schoenherr Roads on Monday.

Police Lt. Luke Riley said the man walked into the bank at noon and handed a teller a note announcing the robbery. The teller gave the man in excess of $1,000, which he put in a black and gray back pack and ran out of the bank.

A customer saw the man and chased him, Riley said. The robber jumped over a wall that led to an apartment complex.

Riley said the man got into a small, dark green SUV with a Michigan license plate.
